The self-taught mathematician Hua Loo-Keng (1910 1985) has been
credited with inspiring generations of mathematicians, while his
papers on number theory are regarded as some of the most
significant contributions made to the subject during the first half
of the twentieth century. An Introduction to Higher Mathematics is
based on the lectures given by Hua at the University of Science and
Technology of China from 1958. The course reflects Hua's
instinctive technique, using the simplest tools to tackle even the
most difficult problems, and contains both pure and applied
mathematics, emphasising the interdependent relationships between
different branches of the discipline. With hundreds of diagrams,
examples and exercises, this is a wide-ranging reference text for
university mathematics and a testament to the teaching of one of
the most eminent mathematicians of his generation.
